    Horse (!) narrated, vicar travails over Helsinki hamlet locals' mores: seventies style local tableau and milieu.

    Ah; this is a fun piece: worth watching for a time capsule lost aspect of the Finnish capital's wooden homes and buildings location shots alone, but plus lead actor Antti Litja cast as a somewhat befuddled returning vicar charged with attempting to counsel the local hamlet populace: all as narrated by an observant horse (yup, you read that right: as local merchandise supplies cart pulling; voiced by Martti Pennanen.)

    By which, such counselling considerations soon cover the reliable Finnish trope of its tough dealing women: here, ostensibly, maritally troubled buxom Anna (Vivi-Ann Sjögren), but just so happens to also include a policewoman (of course - Sina Kujansuu), e.g. Notably, once as with her having taken her beau home and bashing him about - (well, inferred, offscreen!) - then seen suggestively bending almost in half, her truncheon! Oh er, ho, ho = wow, yup: those Finn women, huh?

    But then which also includes along with the local beauty - here the gorgeous Kirsti Wallasvaara cast as Milla, with those distinctive dark eyes of her, those being cast starry eyed towards for Aimo the vicar, too.

    Of course, there's their variously recalcitrant fellahs, too, of whom, some amusing 'painter and decorator' minor slapstick 'steps' are provided from (long gone) Jukka Sipilä.

    (N. B. All discerned from guessing: dvd version seen issued without English subtitling.)
